    Sheriffs should not be able to beat a 10v3. Only if the 3 sheriffs are incredibly skilled at the game should they be able to take on a team of 10. If you're outnumbered that much, you should not be able to win. Also, I've seen people rely on hiding on the roof of the processor and luring bandits out, only to jump on them while they're fighting and cuff them (something sheriffs have done before). This is no fun for the bandit, especially when they'll lose 25k and get almost 30k bounty in jail if they have a full inventory.

    Sheriffs shouldn't be able to take down 10 bandits in the first wave. If you need more backup I suggest making more friends.

    Your gear is almost equal to ours. And stop complaning that Kevlar/pots are expensive. Our gear costs about that/even more.

    You cant defeat large teams without handcuffs? That could also work in reverse, and bandits could say they couldnt defeat sheriffs without handcuffs. But we dont get handcuffs. You do. We're fully potted up, full diamond, illegals, drugs, etc, and you can easily right click us just by sneaking up, take all our guns and drugs, shoot our bounties through the roof, and then send us away. Even if we pay off said bounty, we are still gunless and drugless, which takes a lot of time out of our playtime to replace. And then, during that entire time, we are vulnerable.

    I love how the least skilled sheriffs seem to love cuffs, while the most skilled think they could be nerfed them. Lel.

    Also I love the idea. It is simple yet effective.

    I don't like all the idea but:
    Maybe if the problem is how annoying is to get cuffed while you're KOS for sheriffs, we could make a new invisible tag for the name called 'kos' or idk so...

    -If you've shot a sheriff you would be tagged 'kos' for 5 mins.

    If you're tagged, you can't be cuffed.
    I think this would be better.

    That sounds like a good idea to me. Wouldn't take too much development.

    Or we could just make it so if you shot the sheriff within the last 5m you couldn't get cuffed. Or we could go with my system which makes the game more fun for everyone.

    I don't think your idea would be very funny for starter people though it'd not be a big change. But I just prefer my idea.

    Heres my problem with this system. The only way sheriffs make money in big team fights is cuffing - if we kill say 2 people then get killed, while we are respawning the people who died get bailed, and tp back, and the sheriffs make no money because we never have time to loot the bodies, and actually loose money since we have to buy pots and kevlar. This is one of the main reasons sheriffs cuff because if we don't, we make no money. If this idea were to be implemented, sheriffs would have to make money by killing rogues. Kill a rogue, 30% of bounty goes into the sheriffs bank as money.

    This is not about me making money, its just a necessary thing that needs to be added to make it worthwhile for sheriffs. If something like this wasn't implemented it would result in sheriffs further targeting new players, who often can't defend themselves well, and carry lots of drugs on them.

    Even if you cuff, inspect and ticket people in a big fight (which is not fun for the bandits), when you die you will drop this money anyway, so you would not be making any. You shouldn't make money from a fight you did not win.

    ./team deposit [amount]
    Results in sheriffs going after all the new people just so they can make money to buy pots/kevlar/house - Makes new people not like the game, new people leave. Recently people have been trying to suggest ideas that make going after the big teams & experienced players more profitable for sheriffs so new people stand a better chance. What your suggesting seems to go against this IMO.

    What makes you think you'll have time to do that during a big fight?

    Well, I seem to manage to do it after every cuff I do.

    Not everyone can type as fast as you.

    Well maybe as a substitute, all inspection/killing-rogue money goes to bank (like achievement money does).

    No, it doesn't. It goes to your wallet.

    Yes currently it goes in your wallet, I am talking about changes. Also you seem to be going off on a bit of a tangent here, I'm not quite sure what your getting at besides how fast people can type. I responded to SoCools comment about removing the ability to cuff rogues and KOS people - Here:

    The huge bandit teams that sheriffs often have to go up against is something I dislike, and it also means there's less fights between bandits now. Although it is an issue, cuffs are just as bad and is relatively easy to fix.
